three legged shell chair by hans wegner

The chair was originally introduced in 1963. After producing a few limited editions, the production stopped. Luckily the chair was relaunched in 1997. In spite of its three-legged base the chair stands well on the floor and doesn’t easily topple over. More information can be found on the website of the manufacturer, Carl Hansen. In the US the chair is available from Room & Board.

You should have written because. Three points define a plane. So anything three-legged stands and balances perfectly. It is always the fourth leg that creates problems.
